Getting a Stripper's Phone Number

So last night at a strip club I ended up getting a stripper's number. I wasn't gaming for it or anything, but she said she wanted me to have her number and for us to go for coffee sometime. Now I know there's a good chance that giving me her number was part of the hustle, but I have to know. I haven't texted her yet because Swingers taught me I have to wait at least two days to not look anxious, but I think I've gotta go for it just to see how it would turn out.

So I turn to the Giant Bomb community, who I'm sure are the authority on strippers. Any advice? Anyone date a stripper before, or "date" a stripper before?

As far as I know strippers are kinda fucked up and getting in a relationship with them may be tempting but ultimately a bad idea.

Getting a number from a stripper definitely isnt 'part of the hustle'.

@TechnicallyProficient: To sum up my feelings as concisely as possible, I would say this:

Go for it, but with a grain of salt. That grain being her career.

Dude there just ladies man, everyone finds there own way to pay the rent...she just found a easier though mentally exhausting way. Fucking call her also forget that texting nonsense.

Now this is a thread. Right, phone her and keep an up to date log on this thread of all the details... All the details.

Dont text. Phone in my experience girls ignore you if you text.

I have had numbers forced on me and they just dont answere.

Also yeah. stripper giving you a number not wise man, not wise.

Some are, some aren't. It all depends on the person. I say go for it. Worst case scenario is she gave you a fake number or has no real intentions of seeing you again in hopes of getting a bigger tip.

If you get in a relationship with her, she's probably got serious daddy issues and that will be bad news.

If it's some sort of scam and you meet up with her and you get robbed by her pimp, that's bad news too.

So all around, it's probably bad news.

Ex-strippers are where it's at.

How did you get her number? If it was when she wasn't working and outside the club after a conversation than maybe she legit wants to go out. If she gave you her number randomly in the middle of her dance or while she was grinding on you she probably just wanted to make you feel special so you give her some more $$.

EDIT: Also maybe you should listen to your avatar...

Stripper and prostitute are two different things in most places. Prostitutes have the pimps.

First thing I thought of.

I say go for it. Who knows? She might not be the stereotypical view that everyone has on strippers.

Go for it. You're leaving a mark in history, sir.

You're the master of your destiny man. If it were me, hell yeah I'd call her...not that a stripper would ever give me her number. And a single tear dropped down the dude's face at this realization.

I say go for it. I would avoid getting into a relationship and just hook up. Just make sure to bag it before doing anything. No glove, no love.

Totally agree with you on call over text, but I was specifically instructed to text as she claimed she didn't have any minutes left on her plan for the month. Again, don't know if there's a deeper message buried in that comment or not, but that's what she said.

Did you watch the end of the movie? Anyone worth having a relationship with is past playing those games. Giver her a call and don't sweat it, either way.

You should go ahead and meet up with her.  What's the worst that could happen?
 
Bring a gun, though.

I don't know man, there is almost always something going on behind the scenes if a woman decides to be naked in front of strangers, and emotionally unstable women, while tempting, usually cause more harm than good.

What ever happened to him? I remember his blog about trying to pick up a stripper too.

Perhaps you should raise your standards slightly.

Buddy of mine dated a stripper about 8 years back, Things went bad real fast, started using cocaine lost his job and ultimately ended up in rehab.

I'm sorry. 
 
Oh, you're serious?
 
Uh... ya, no offense but town bicycles aren't entirely a prize. I wouldn't be that stoked. I would probably throw the number away.

Unless she works after hours (i.e. is a prostitute), she is probably genuinely interested in you. The least that will come of it is a great story to tell your bros (I just assumed you called your friends bros because you went to a strip club. Am I a bad person?)

ITT: uptight douchers.

If you are interested in her, call her. If you aren't, don't. Really simple. Her job has no impact on the steps you should take.

Nobody's posted the obligatory "Touch her shoulder." or "Fake your own death." advice yet? I don't know you guys anymore.

the way it looks is you have a fifty-fifty chance of her being interested in you or shes just messing with you.

Strippers are not prostitutes and have the same exact chances of carrying an STD as any other person. Why does everyone treat them like they're biological experiments gone awry?

If you liked her enough, give her a message and see what happens?

At the end of the day, she's just a stripper. She might have the stereotypical daddy issues and drug problem, she might not, but that can apply as equally to marketing executives or chicks at McDonalds.

If the job is a problem for you, don't waste her time (it wouldn't be for me, but I have a bit of an exhibitionist/voyeur streak, so there it is). If it isn't, give it a shot and see what happens. You'll find out pretty fast if she is scamming you or not.

I do like the fact that for several people here, stripping = prostitution. That's like me writing tenders for the health department makes me a doctor, right guys?

Yes, YES, YES. This. @TechnicallyProficient: I'd say go for it man, but be cautious. Perhaps she just wants to be friends. Most importantly I'd say don't let the relationship drive you into things you normally wouldn't take part in, like some people have mentioned here, if she's into doing coke or whatever. Did you get a dance from her? Or were you just casually chatting?

Where's that dating service picture? This thread hasn't been sanctioned yet!

OP: I would tell you to go for it but if it were me I wouldn't have the balls so....

I foresee cold sores in your future. If she offers you pie, don't eat it.

I don't know why you wouldn't do this. Be cautious, but don't worry.

Go for it. What do you have to lose?

It's a stripper we're talking about so touching is not really allowed.

My own experience with strippers (ex-actually) makes me real suspicious about her phone story. Mine gave flimsy excuses like that all over the place.

Reasons she would say that:

A) She's telling the truth

B) To allay suspicion if you were to try dialing the number there and then to make sure you got it right

C) She's already in a relationship that she wants to get out of, but doesn't want to have to explain a phone call to her boyfriend.

You guys have let me down. This thread had such potential but has morphed into the "I'm scared of women" thread. I came in here expecting great things and intstead I found "eww don't touch the stripper," or serious relationship advice...

If she's as broke as you make it sound then it might be she thought she could get a few meals or such outta you without having to give up anything in return. Or she could possibly have just thought you were cute and wants to get down biblical style on your ass, and other parts. Or it might be a little of both. Either way, if you think she's cute it might be worth a shot. Have fun! Live a little! (but don't expect it to turn into a porn right outta the gate, that could lead to awkwardness and a terrible time being had by both of you)

If you're not interested then don't do those things, and stop humble bragging.

TC, how much did you pay her? Did you go all the way, or was it a simple lap dance? If you went into the back with her, then it's probable that she's looking for a sugar daddy type relationship. It's typical that strippers will give their number to guys who simply pay a lot and do some outside dealing out of the club. But if it was just a simple lap dance under the $50 mark, then yeah she might be interested.

I had a friend that met a girl in a brothel that he ended up dating for some time. He ended up falling in love and couldn't handle her getting screwed by 10 men a night. That I wouldn't recommend.

Just have some fun & don't get clingy.

Have a lot of experience with this do you?

On a related note...

It's not difficult to get a phone number of a stripper or even to go home with one. A lot of these chicks prostitute themselves on the side and will approach customers in the club under the guise of starting a relationship. Allow keep in mind most are drug addicts.
